Is this 8GB memory module compatible with the Serval?

G.SKILL 8GB (2 x 4GB) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500) Laptop Memory Model F3-8500CL7D-8GBSQ

It's listed at $400 on Newegg. I'm guessing it'll drop again after new years.

Which Serval? (Your System76 Driver will tell you which one you have.)

The SERP5. I'm thinking this might be a nice Christmas gift for me if the price is right.

Hmmm... I *think* those are fine, but I'm a little leery of publicly OKing them on a public forum. If they turned out to not work, I'd risk sending a lot of people in the wrong direction.

Can you send me an email? I'll investigate it further. support...at...system76...dot...com.

No worries. I thought you guys maintained a compatibility list somewhere. I'll do the trial and error method. Thanks for the quick and honest response.

UPDATE:

I ordered these from Newegg for around $400, and so far they are working fine with the SERP5. Now I can really stretch.
